Today we created a design spreadsheetwhich we will use to design oligos for cloning our assigned aminoacyl tRNA synthetases--Joshua P Nixon 16:15, 14 February 2014 (EST)

We determined that because alanyl-tRNA synthetase is a homodimer that the other related sequence we had found (375 aa) is not another chain to the protein and unnecessary for our experiment. We also made a choice between the two aspartyl-tRNA synthetases for the one which is not of the nondescriminating variety. --Joshua P Nixon 13:30, 18 February 2014 (EST)

Today we started the wetlab portion of our experiment by miniprepping the Pbad-Oled from E. Coli so that we may later clone our aminoacyl tRNA synthetase constructs into it (We use a Quiagen miniprep kit). --Joshua P Nixon 01:19, 28 February 2014 (EST)
